Full description

Take a tour with a dark twist as you embark on a ghost-hunting adventure on Summit Avenue, one of America’s greatest streets. Follow your guide and learn about the famous residents of Saint Paul – including F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sinclair Lewis - and their misfortunes.

Carry on down the Avenue and hear the sinister stories behind their elaborate turrets and gables of the other Victorian mansions and investigate the mystery of Sinclair Lewis’ lost manuscript at the William Butler House.

Where to begin… guide made multiple people uncomfortable with comments. Tour was 30 minutes shorter than listed time. Ended tour with “Tip me please” and “you can tip me now, I take cash or venmo”. Stories seemed to go nowhere often. And said “nay nay” too many times. Was condescending and was rude to hard of hearing client. Was awkward. Was poor at giving directions and took tour back and forth across a busy street too many times than needed. And no ghosts. Boo.
